Home exchange companies

There are dozens of home-exchange clubs. Some charge a fee; some are free. Many provide Web site listings only; others also produce catalogues. They are not responsible for the accuracy of the listings, the actions of members, or making personal arrangements. Here are a few places to start your search:
